Overview

I am an MC/Host and I have been playing drums in church since a young chap. I play gospel (mostly contemporary and traditional style gospel). I also played in Marching Band and Jazz Band in High School. That is the extent of my formal training. I've served as a percussionist in African Drum companies also. If you need a drummer for your church event...or other kind of event...please contact me.
I also have a little experience as a soundman as long as you provide the mixing board and equipment.
